Paris, 13 November. According to letters from Constantinople dated 12
October announced the Turkish government officially that the Greek fleet burnt
30 transports, 2 frigates and 5 goelettes, corvettes or brigs. Nothing was said
about how many ships were captured just that the Captain Pasha was very lucky
in escaping just because the Greeks thought that he was on board one of the
burned frigates. The 30 transports were all Turkish and the enlisted Europeans
hadn’t been present at the battle.
